The Ferret - Cable Pulling & Fishing Tool
Fiberglass wire fishing tool
The Ferret is a wire fishing and wire pulling tool designed to be more accurate, reliable, and durable than any other fish tape. Strong enough to maintain direction and rigidity while fishing wire through walls – yet flexible enough to maneuver past obstacles. The Ferret features a unique guide wheel to help it glide over obstacles with ease.
This fish tape has outstanding durability thanks to its fiberglass-reinforced polymer construction. The Ferret wire fishing tool can make it through tight spaces without a scratch. The guide wheel is made of a high-performance polymer so it can survive impacts and bends.
The Ferret comes with a steel hook accessory that attaches to the tail. The hook makes it easy to grab difficult-to-reach cables so you can work more quickly and efficiently. This is the perfect wire pulling tool for solo jobs.

Step 2: Tie the cable to the tail end of The Ferret and insert the head (wheel end) in the opening.
Step 3: Direct The Ferret using the body and feed it through until it reaches the endpoint.
Step 4: Pull The Ferret through the opening. Then coil it up for the next job.
